Excellent video. I seem to remember that when route 7 started they used mini-buses... and now it's big double-deckers!

[@13Tenantry]

Thanks for this, currently route learning the hove routs for bh buses & your videos are defiantly helping me out so just wanted to say a BIG THANKS!

[@pietias231]

Great! Just mind that my videos are at least 2 year old! The routes might have changed slightly :)

[@sbgenius3]

I feel like I'm on this bus! I always missed those scene on the bus but no way to look this. So I am happy today find your channel. Really appreciate to share lots of videos. xxx

what a nice place Brighton is enjoyable ride mate thanks mate

[@pietias231]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@dominicryan1911]

Hi just subscribed - think your videos are great. I'm a driver for Compass Travel in Lewes so feel free to come out and film some of our routes, they're certainly interesting! Also, a constructive criticism - have you thought about purchasing a suck-on tripod stand for your phone which you can place on the window. It would help keep the video stable and also saves you from having to hold it! :)

[@pietias231]

Thanks for the sub and comment! I record with my smartphone attached to the gimbal for stability. I don't mind having to hold it + it gives me a chance to move it around freely, for instance to follow something interesting a bit longer when it appears during the ride :)

[@jeremywilcox]

Thank you for your work here. I am sure you have a reason, but for me, you do not need to edit out the short stops - they are all part of a real journey and would save you some time.

[@pietias231]

Thanks for the comment. Sure the stops are part of the journey but a boring one! ;) My bus ride videos are all about the movement and changing scenery seen from the front window! :)

Could you do Brighton Bus Route 6 please?

[@pietias231]

Yes, it's planned for early june. Stay tuned! ;)

[@external3580]

Fantastic work mate! Reckon you could get the 14/14C sometime soon? I don’t know if you take requests but yeah haha!

[@pietias231]

14B is scheduled for next Saturday! :)

[@external3580]

@@pietias231 lovely! Honestly I forgot the 14B actually existed tbh. A better route with it including the marina imo 😁
